DIVE INTO PARADISE: ROATÁN MAYAN PRINCESS ADVENTURE
Join BlueBound Travel for a curated dive adventure on the lush, laid-back island of Roatán, located along the second-largest barrier reef in the world—the vibrant Mesoamerican Reef. For seven nights, we’ll call the Mayan Princess Beach & Dive Resort home, a boutique-style, all-inclusive beachfront property that blends tropical comfort with easy access to world-class diving.
All diving is provided through our local partner—the resort’s onsite 5-Star PADI Instructor Development Center, a team we trust to deliver safe, smooth, and unforgettable underwater experiences. Working closely with our BlueBound guides, these professionals help us create a trip where every diver, whether it’s your first night dive or your hundredth wreck, feels supported and inspired.
Expect 16 scheduled dives, including dramatic wall dives, lush coral gardens, swim-throughs, and a complimentary night dive. You’ll explore iconic sites like Mary’s Place, Blue Channel, and the El Aguila Wreck, all just minutes from the dock.

Vibrant marine life: The island is home to an incredible array of sea creatures, including dolphins, sea turtles, and colorful fish.

Yes. All prices are based on double occupancy. If you’re traveling solo, a single supplement usually applies. However, if you’d like to be paired with a roommate, we’ll do our best to match you with another solo traveler of the same gender. Mixed-gender pairing is only done when both parties specifically request and agree to it.
This trip is limited to 14–26 guests, allowing for personalized attention while still maintaining a social group atmosphere.
You’ll fly into Roatán International Airport (RTB). A BlueBound team member will meet you there and provide your private transfer to the resort, which is about 30 minutes away.
The package includes five days of 3-tank boat dives plus one complimentary night dive, for a total of 16 dives (weather permitting).
